York to Southend Transfers for Every Kind of Trip
Business & Commuter Travel
York is a busy commercial and visitor city, and the professionals travelling out of it value a transfer that runs to plan over a long distance.
Family Holidays
Setting off from Clifton or Fulford with children and a boot full of cases is far kinder door to door than shepherding a family through three trains.

York to Southend Airport Taxi – Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about York to Southend taxis. More on our FAQ page.
How much does a taxi from York to London Southend Airport cost?
The fare starts at £382 for a saloon and is fixed at booking, rising by vehicle size for larger groups. It is an all-in figure with the airport fee included and no surge pricing, so the amount you see when you reserve is the amount you pay, whatever the traffic on the M1 or M25 that day.
How long does the York to Southend Airport journey take?
The drive is around 4 hours and 15 minutes for the 226 miles. Most of the route is motorway along the A1(M), the M1 and the M25, so outside the peak hours the timing is dependable; your driver builds in a sensible buffer for the busier stretches of the orbital and the A127.
What route do you take from York to Southend Airport?
Your driver heads out to the A1(M) and down the M1, then joins the M25 and runs it clockwise over the northern side of London before dropping onto the A127 into Rochford. The whole drive stays north of the Thames, so there is no Dartford Crossing on this journey, and an experienced driver switches to the A13 if Rayleigh Weir is bunching on the arterial road.
Do you cover Selby, Tadcaster and Harrogate as well as York?
Yes. We collect from every York neighbourhood including Clifton, Acomb, Heslington and Fulford, as well as the wider area such as Selby, Tadcaster, Malton and Harrogate, all on the same fixed-fare basis to Southend.
